Keep timestamp when copying files to SDcard
Hello,
I know that there is a bug regarding google fuse implementation that does not allows to keep the photo/video/file, that it is copied to SDcard, to keep its timestamp. BUT I would like to suggest if it is possible to try to implement it using root. I saw that total commander, mi-xplorer work that way. So Maybe it is a good idea to add a root option into settings so that all copy/move function could be done using root.
Thanks in advance

It's going to be a long while until users get to the Android 8 fix for this timestamp problem. I agree with the idea as most all users would benefit for years to come. It's frustrating not being able to backup files to or from Gdrive or SD with confidence. Just trying to sort out the overwrites between New and Old, Keep and Merge is a nightmare. The only sure way to have certainty is to use different fresh target media and never bother with overwrites. The problem with this is that it removes the possibility of an incremental backup. Full backups on my data take 2 hours and always crash due to the lack of a "keep session alive" feature. Incremental backups would take less than 4 minutes. That should be enough to get this idea implemented.
